Give Up or Keep Going?

This is a short post because I'm getting tired of my goals and not being able to reach them. I'm going to have to rethink things I think. I once again weighed in today and I'm back up to 179. I hate HATE THIS!!!!! Granted Valentine's Day was rough on the diet, all the food and candy. I have been exercising but obviously that's not doing anything. Today I started to exercise and then the Wii shut off and lost all that I had been doing. Needless to say I gave up today. I'm just too dang frustrated. Plus the 2 little ones are driving me INSANE! They just make working out at times more frustrating and it makes me more angry instead of calming and relaxing me. So today is a bum day. I'm mad, frustrated and ready to give up.

Good day

So I weighed myself today and it was down a bit. I am now at 177.something. The Wii doesn't give me the ounces so I guess on those. But I am in between 177 and 178. I finally went below 179! YAY! I'm going to round down because I feel like I work my butt off to get where I'm at. Larry got me for Valentines Day the Wii Fit Plus. Some of you may be thinking "What?" "Why?" but I asked for it. I also got me a pair of exercise pants in one size smaller than I bought at Christmas time. So I feel like I'm making progress, even if I'm not. We opened the Wii game early because the kids didn't want me to wait till V-day and since I'm not a huge lover of Valentine's Day I said Ok. We are loving it. There are some really fun games and a few new exercises on it. Even Kamden and Kinsee are able to play a few of the games and they are loving it. I think it's really good for them to learn to play. It teaches them to take turns, to balance, their right and left, hand -eye-feet coordination, etc. We've been having a good time. I'll save the pants for the actual day of V-day. I'm just excited that I lost a couple of pounds, finally! Larry also has a new program on his I-touch that helps me keep track of my caloric intake and burn of calories. I love it. Knowing what I'm eating and taking in plus burning is really helping me to stay on track. I have a few weak moments but overall I'm glad of the new steps I'm taking and that my family is helping me. I'm glad they love me for who I am and how I am but it's nice to feel better about myself too. Thank you Larry and kids for loving me and helping me on my path toward fitness and good health!

Part of the good health for my family is the Dr. We've had several appts which I mentioned on my other blog. This year WILL be the year we get healthy no matter what. We'll find a way to afford to fix us all up or die trying. :) Ok so let's not hope it really kills us.

Hope all y'all are doing well on your goals. Keep it up! We Can Do It!

So Angry

I'm angry today because once again I'm not losing any freakin weight! I'm so frustrated with this whole process. What is the use of dieting and exercising when it's doing NO GOOD! I bounce between 179 and 183 all the time. No matter how much I cut out or how much I'm exercising I'm not losing any weight. If I do I just gain it back. I gained 3 lbs just by going to bed last night! What is the point?! I've been exercising since October or at least November. I should lose around a pound a week. I understood gaining at first because I'm rebuilding muscle but by now I should be losing! Nope, nada, nothing. I need to start seeing some results or I'm going to go postal!
